    new regulator just inches

    I put a new drivers side window regulator in just moments ago. The problem is is it just inches up and down. When I press up/down it will lift ever so slightly and then stop. Its almost like it has to cool down or something before it will move again. Any help is much appreciated.

    Is it a used regulator? Did you make sure everything was "aligned" before tightening it all down? There are a few possibilities it could be.

      No, as I stated its new. Everything seems lined up and looks good. It runs fine without the window in. Could it be the motor and that it just doesn't have the power to lift the window?

        I dont understand why the NEW motor wouldnt have the torque to move the window. Is anything in the track? Did you have to move/bend the track to pull the regulator?

          The motor is the original, you asked if the regulator was used. Nope everything looks good, direct bolt on

            Check if the window channels are tight.

            Sometimes the window channels become tight due to old age (the rubbers lose their elasticity, harden and become grippy).

            You may need to lubricate the window channel if they are. Use Automotive silicone.

              Yea, try lubing up the channel/track with some Silicone or white lithium and see what happens. If that doesnt work, next thing to do is replace the motor.
